“We\u2019ve started full-scale development.”<\/h4>\n

In a new interview with 4Gamer,<\/a> Shin Megami Tensei V producer Kazuyuki Yamai has stated\u00a0that full-scale development is finally underway, along with more details on how the game will work. The interview is entirely in Japanese but translations from other sites gives us a clear understanding of what’s being exchanged.<\/p>\n

It’s worth pointing out that Shin Megami Tensei V\u00a0was revealed over a year ago, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch and back in December\u00a0Kazuyuki Yamai\u00a0expressed that the game\u2019s development was in a \u201cscrap-and-build phase.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the interview below, 4Gamer asked about the status of Shin Megami Tensei V.\u00a0 In response, Yamai stated (as translated by\u00a0Persona Central<\/strong><\/a>):<\/p>\n

At the start, the production of this project only had a few people at its core, with more and more people gradually becoming involved. Although this number is still increasing, I feel that the production staff has come together considerably to a point\u2014and reaching a milestone\u2014where we can say we\u2019ve started full-scale development.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yamai added that Atulus wants to make a big deal out of this release seeing as it’s the first major console release in a while, last game being Shin Megami Tensei III for the PS2. He would like to make Shin Megami Tensei V in a way that compliments both home consoles and handhelds and convenience will definitely play a big part in this installment as he emphasizes on wanting it to have\u00a0“a sense of relaxation” enjoying demon fusing while laying on a bed and compares it to\u00a0Shin Megami Tensei IV<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse<\/em>\u00a0on 3DS.
\nCompared to previous titles, Yamai thinks that the effort they’re putting into demons this time around is about three times more.<\/p>\n

Lastly, Yamai gave us more insight on the surplus of staff-members they’re having, compared to when they first started.<\/p>\n

“When the game\u2019s production first started, the project only had a few core members, and we\u2019ve been gradually adding more people to it. While more people will be joining, we now have a solid group of staff members, and I feel like we\u2019ve reached the turning point where we can actually say we\u2019re making it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
